Resurrection Band - Beggar In The Alleyway lyrics
[Resurrection Band - Beggar In The Alleyway lyrics]
Tomorrow comes early in the morning light
But, like a spider in the shadows
We spin in the night
The wrong and right is in black and white
Someone tell me why we hide from
The truth that's within our sight
Felt like the sole performer on
A one act play
That the critics wouldn't give
The time of day so I changed the characters
Rewrote the lines hoping that
Would change their minds
But no one came to see, not even me
And you were a beggar where
The north wind spreads
Down garbage-strewn alleys you made your bed
Ooh, and he was the lover who held
Your head in a lap of compassion
He cried and said, "Stay with me
Stay with me until dawn
The night is cold, why wander on?
You've been lonely far too long
Stay with me until dawn
Put aside all you've done wrong
Nothing matters anymore
But the love you're searching for
But the love you're searching for"
Ahh
As planets revolve around the sun
I've learned to
Revolve around the one who knows the score
Who is the sum
The true, and pure, and faultless one
'Cause, I was a beggar in the
Alleyway until one desperate passion play
The dice were loaded, the deck was marked
And I lay dying in the dark
Lord took me in and covered me
Turned on the light that made
Me see who am I without your
Son, the King of Kings, the risen one
Ooh yeah ooh, yeah, yeah
Tomorrow comes early in the morning light
Though weeping tarries through the night
Easter gave fair warning: joy
Comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Ah
But, like a spider in the shadows
We spin in the night
The wrong and right is in black and white
Someone tell me why we hide from
The truth that's within our sight
Felt like the sole performer on
A one act play
That the critics wouldn't give
The time of day so I changed the characters
Rewrote the lines hoping that
Would change their minds
But no one came to see, not even me
And you were a beggar where
The north wind spreads
Down garbage-strewn alleys you made your bed
Ooh, and he was the lover who held
Your head in a lap of compassion
He cried and said, "Stay with me
Stay with me until dawn
The night is cold, why wander on?
You've been lonely far too long
Stay with me until dawn
Put aside all you've done wrong
Nothing matters anymore
But the love you're searching for
But the love you're searching for"
Ahh
As planets revolve around the sun
I've learned to
Revolve around the one who knows the score
Who is the sum
The true, and pure, and faultless one
'Cause, I was a beggar in the
Alleyway until one desperate passion play
The dice were loaded, the deck was marked
And I lay dying in the dark
Lord took me in and covered me
Turned on the light that made
Me see who am I without your
Son, the King of Kings, the risen one
Ooh yeah ooh, yeah, yeah
Tomorrow comes early in the morning light
Though weeping tarries through the night
Easter gave fair warning: joy
Comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Ah
